Q: A ruin (e.g. a Shrine of the Aquila) is treated as difficult terrain, but does this mean that models
can move through the walls?
A: No.

You've always been able to koolaid man through walls as it's assumed they are blasting through or whatever. Is this question just ambiguous because the example is the Shrine?

Those factory buildings just got better.

Guess I'll swap out the pods for a conclave with the new powers and use Shrine Aquila as drop pods...

Q: If a flyer which is forced to move 18" forwards due to an Immobilised result ends its move over an
enemy unit, does it ‘Crash and Burn!’?
A: No. Use the ‘Wobbly Model Syndrome’ rule.

Yea CaveBro taught me that as a technique and it does say it in the rules but hey its a little squirrely anyway

The point is moot as FMC no longer get toe in.

I was surprised at this, thought it said in the rulebook that you were assumed to climb over or bust through walls, but hey

Q: Do Flyers, Super-heavy vehicles, Swooping Flying Monstrous Creatures and Gargantuan
Creatures gain cover while standing on the ‘base’ of a terrain piece, e.g. ruins or dense thickets, or
do they need to be at least 25% obscured by the scenery for cover to apply?
A: The 25% rule applies in all types of terrain if the target is a Flyer, Super-heavy Vehicle, Flying
Monstrous Creature or Gargantuan Creature. All other targets count as being in cover if they are in
or on the terrain’s base, even if not 25% obsured

I think this still leaves some questions. Two that come to mind are, what about a monstrous creature? the question mentions flying monstrous creatures. In addition, it says all other types get cover for being "toe in" Does that include vehicles? It specifically says in the rulebook that vehicles require 25% cover.

Yea you taught me to move a unit in the way of an immobilized flyer and when they couldn't place it they had to remove it from play

I'm ready to use them tomorrow night. I have been bamboozled many times by things that were clarified in this faq.
